“Angela is amazing! She houses sat and watched my Honey for 3 days while we were out of town. She kept us updated morning and night and sent lots of photos. Thank you Angela for spoiling our baby.”
“What an incredible in-home experience! Not accustomed to being left alone, Gilly our Basset Hound is gleeful when she comes through the door after her first day sitting. She is sensitive to all his requests and needs. He is one happy dog. She devotes every moment to your pup and comes up with great experiences to keep them content and entertained She respects your boundaries for your pet with love. He has been through a lot of major changes the last few years and can be anxious when something new comes along. With Britney, he is so calm and has all the confidence in the world she will protect him. Britney is very knowledgeable and communicates very well. We highly recommend her and wish she was our human caretaker. We will hire her again and again.”
“Tracy was very attentive to our pets needs. She kept in contact with pictures and videos, which we loved. She responded quickly and was able to meet prior to our leaving so we could go over things and show her around. We were able to change our arrangements with Tracy and Rover while away. Very happy.”

“We used Isabel this week for the first time - one drop in and one house sitting. Isabel provided great care for our 60 lb german shepherd mix. She sent us photos & video and was thorough and professional. We are already planning to use her again 2 more times this month. We are so glad we found her!”
“Second time booking Tyler and second time with no regrets! My cats love Tyler and she genuinely loves them back! Great sitter, follows instructions immaculately, and leaves the home as good as new. Will book Tyler again when we need a sitter! Thanks!!”

“Xu cared for my dog (55lb puppy) and cat for a week in my home. She communicated well and sent photos and videos. My dog had diarrhea in his crate the first night and she cleaned it really well and offered to give him some of her own dogs’ probiotics to help him. She took him outside several times each day, and even took him on a field trip to play with her dogs (with my permission). Xu cared for my pets like they were her own and I would absolutely trust her to care for them again.”
“Nadia was great looking after Shade while I was out of town! She made sure to stick to his routine while also taking him on some new experiences (: she sent plenty of updates/pictures as well. I would definitely book her again and recommend her!”
About: I used to have a dog of my own. Having him from 9 months old, to being 9 years old. He was a very easy obedient dog to take care. I miss him so much! Since my place isn't big enough to have any dogs. I would love to take care of other people's dog or puppy. I'm currently unemployed. Putting together some ideas for new project. Just need to work to keep myself busy with Rover.com. It would fit into my schedule M-F when parents are at work or on vacation. I'm a clean and organized person. I always made sure that my dog was clean and also to potty on command. I like to make sure to give the dog attention and be playful and have training them at the same time.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 20 years and have experience with puppies, adult dogs, and seniors. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to keep pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, administering medications, cleaning up after pets, and providing lots of love and attention. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, and individualized care, and I’ll treat your furry family member as if they were my own. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide walks, drop-in visits, daycare, and overnight care throughout the week, including weekends. I take the time to follow each pet’s routine, provide plenty of exercise, play, affection, and send regular photo updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, feeding schedule, medications, and exercise needs before every visit. As a longtime dog owner, I understand how important trust and communication are, so I’ll provide regular updates and photos while you’re away. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive patient, attentive, and loving care. I know how important it is to find someone dependable, attentive, and compassionate, and that’s exactly the kind of care I strive to provide for every pet I meet.
“Katherine was excellent and very communicative. We had complete peace of mind about her care for our dog while we were out of town and will definitely contact her again in the future!”
About: TLDR: 1) I’ve taken care of dogs for 4+ years 2) I love hiking and long walks 3) Dogs tend to like me and I like them My fur-nephews are away and I miss them. Both my siblings have dogs and I've taken care of them over the years. Now, your dog instead, can be spoiled by my care. I can walk your dog around the neighborhood, to parks, and maybe even to a dog-park if you'd like. I'm the person that you run into the park or on the sidewalk that starts talking to you because your dog is just that cute and I want to pet him/her. I’m currently working part-time so my schedule is flexible and we can see when could work best for our schedules. Preferably walks and/or visits are when the sun is still out. It’s important for us to have a chat so that I know what your pet’s likes, dislikes, and rules are. Once that is shared, I’ll use it to provide the best experience for your pet! :)
About: Hi, I’m Elaina! With a lifelong love for animals and over fifteen years of experience caring for pets, and a special love for senior dogs - I’m passionate about providing the best care possible. As someone with a corporate background who traveled frequently, I understand how difficult it can be to find someone truly reliable to care for your pets. That experience inspired me to start a dog walking and pet care service grounded in trust, consistency, and genuine attention. I know how important it is to have someone who treats your pet like family - someone who shows up on time, follows instructions, and makes your pet feel comfortable in your absence. Whether you’re at work, away on business, need an extra hand, or taking a well-earned break, I’m here to make sure your pet gets the love and care they deserve that I once searched for myself. You’ll get photo updates, peace of mind, and the comfort of knowing your pet is in caring hands. Pet care is a meaningful part of my daily routine, even with a full-time day job. Monday through Friday, I’m available for walks and check-ins before 7 a.m. and after 5 p.m., and I make it a priority to give each pet the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. On weekends, I’m an open book with much more flexibility for visits and extended care. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and treat every visit with the same care and commitment as if they were my own. Eventually, I’d love to create a more flexible schedule that allows me to care for pets more frequently while still managing my day job - it’s a passion I’m excited to continue growing. When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I familiarize myself with their feeding schedules, exercise habits, and any specific care instructions you may have. I aim to maintain a stress-free environment for your pet by following the same level of attention and affection they are used to in their own space. I am respectful of your home, ensuring it stays tidy and organized while I provide excellent care for your pets.
“Here's a thoughtful review for your dog sitter Jenna: We are incredibly grateful to have found Jenna as our in-home dog sitter. She’s been amazing with our fur baby, treating them with so much love and care every time we need her. Jenna’s communication is always spot on, keeps us updated and is quick to respond, which gives us so much peace of mind while we’re away. She’s not only reliable but genuinely passionate about taking care of our dog, and it shows! We feel lucky to have her, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring pet sitter! Thank you so much Jenna!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Rowland Heights
We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter! She stayed at our apartment over the Fourth of July weekend and took amazing care of both our home and our cats. She was incredibly communicative throughout her stay, sending regular updates and making us feel completely at ease while we were away. We came home to a spotless apartment and, most importantly, two very happy, relaxed cats who clearly adored her. It’s obvious she genuinely cares about the pets she watches and treats them like her own. We would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our furry family and our home!
Tracy did a wonderful job caring for both our pet and our home while we were away. It gave us such peace of mind knowing everything was in great hands, and we could fully enjoy our vacation without any worries. We truly appreciate having someone so trustworthy!
Miah has been the best person I’ve used on Rover. I have a hard time leaving my senior pups because they are my babies. But boy did they love Miah! She was very attentive and mindful of their senior needs. I always received updates and pictures daily. Miah is so responsible and will truly love your pets as if they are her own. My house was left as if we never went on vacation. We were away for a week and although we were far I always felt that my fur babies were in good hands. As if family was caring for them. She truly was the best ! And I could tell that they missed her and were looking for her when we got back. We will be contacting her for the future! Thank you from our family Miah.

FAQs for House Sitting - Rowland Heights
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Rowland Heights on Rover is $59 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 15,615 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Rowland Heights. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Rowland Heights walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Rowland Heights maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Rowland Heights choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
